Remy Bumppo Theatre Company
Remy Bumppo Theatre Company delights and engages audiences with the emotional and ethical complexities of society through the provocative power of great theatrical language. Masterful acting and directing by the company’s ensemble of Artistic Associates showcases the wit and wisdom of the world’s great playwrights. At the heart of Remy Bumppo’s mission is a determination to provoke thoughtful conversation with our audience about the big ideas in the plays, which we believe leads to thoughtful action and a more compassionate and civilized society.
